If you're thinking about going here dont... just go to the one on Miramar, so much nicer and much more well staffed and better tools. Ed made me feel like I shouldn't be checking out tools, dude was very rude. He does not know how to just grab people tools, the guy in front of me asked for a socket set and Ed questioned (not in a polite way) him about something he was doing prior. Also the price to rent a lift was kinda outrageous for MWR standards, paid $10 an hour for a 4 point lift. Not a 100% sure but I'm pretty sure I've gotten cheaper rates at other locations.

Ed, the guy checking out the tools needs to find a new job. He is extremely rude when you ask to check out any tool (which is his only job). The head guy (who is absolutely amazing) leaves at 4pm and then Ed refuses to check out additional tools and chastises and chases everyone out by 4:30 so he can leave 30 minutes early all while working on one of his cars using the lifts with the MWR tools without paying anything for it's use. The MWR people need to pay more attention to how this place is managed/run. Also, help Ed either realize that his job involves checking out tools without being rude or help Ed find somewhere else to work!

I'm currently living in an RV, so having a place that I can work on my vehicle when something comes up is a huge benefit! These guys rock, no complaints!

It's hard to find someone to help you at the counter on a Friday. I've been there other times on a Saturday and Sunday without that issue. The tool room guy gives a lot of unnecessary attitude when asking for tools. I'm not sure what his problem issue is. For the most part, the shop has what you need for basic repair work.

Good place to take your car to do your own work. Bring your own tools. Most ratchet sets are broken. Helpful advisers always available.

Staff is friendly. There's always somebody around to help and watch to ensure things are going smooth on the compound. The prices are great. The only thing that may be lacking is the amount of tools they have compared to 32nd Street however, I have done full suspension upgrade on my car and miscellaneous other things there with zero issues on getting tools needed. Facilities are what you would expect from a auto shop, very functional.

They have tools (most work) and they have lifts. Tool room dude is weirdly hard to find, when you do find him he acts almost offended that you need something. Was also weirdly rude and verbally combative, gave me bootcamp no-right-answer / you ll get berated no matter what you say kinda vibes. Also stood over another dude yelling at him to hurry up once cleanup started.Everyone else was cool, tool room guy just gave me the impression that I was more of a walking inconvenience using my car maintenance privilege instead of a customer paying around $100.

Will not let you in after 1500 even though they are open until 1700. Say they need a 2 hour buffer to ensure people can complete work before closing. Simple jobs like tire rotation, & even an oil change should not need a 2 hour buffer. This policy is also not published anywhere.Other than the bad hours and self applied "policy", the facilities are nice and there are plenty of lifts. They also have plenty of tools you can check out, although I haven't done anything here more complicated than oil and tire rotations.

One of the best services from Military MWR. Multiple lifts for DIY car services. You can borrow tools & also buy some items in their small store. Additional services include vehicle & RV storage & a resale lot on base for a low monthly fee.

Out of the roughly 4 employees that work there. 3 are professional, helpful, and seem to enjoy their job. Unfortunately, 9 times out of 10 I get stuck having to deal with Ed, the guy who lends out tools. He's got a terrible personality and is neither helpful nor professional. He seems to hate his job. I won't be coming back here again, which is unfortunate that such a useful resource is ruined over one bad apple.

The guys here are friendly, and helpful with whatever you need. Ed helped me replace a broken passenger door glass, it's easiersoer with one person holding the panel while the other gets it aligned on the track. Thanks again Ed!

Need to update their info...they've been closed for over a month due to being short staffed. No announcement by MWR that they're closed, no placards on the gate...have to drive by every week to see if they're open yet to try to work on my vehicle. Hire someone already and open the facility back up!
